Lady Elizabeth School opened on 14 September 1987 in Jávea with Veronica Barnes as founder and 14 students. In 2000, the school began delivering British education from Nursery to A Level, added an established choir and became an official LAMDA exam centre. In 2007, LAUDE acquired Lady Elizabeth School, introducing a new uniform, an expanded subject offering and a vibrant international community. In 2010, a new campus opened in Cumbre del Sol, with Primary moving to the purpose-built campus and facilities including a swimming pool, gym, playgrounds and sea views. In 2011, the school expanded with global programmes, a boarding house, the Duke of Edinburgh Award, Model United Nations and more performances and charity events. In 2014, LES joined International Schools Partnerships (ISP). In 2018, Secondary students joined Primary at the new campus, reflecting ongoing development and renewal under ISP.
